Wow, it's been such a long time since I last updated this blog of mine. I almost forgot it even existed. Well, I've got no time to dilly dally so I'll get start to the point. Life's been pretty good up. I'm living in overseas now but I'm back in Malaysia for the time being. Going back this Sunday.
I'd still be there if I didn't manage to injure myself while dancing. Tore a muscle tissue and boy, did it hurt like a motherfuc-er. I had to get injected with morphine and all that crazy shit. Couldn't walk for 3 days and sit properly for about 5 days. Just finished my physio treatment a week ago. Glad those days in pain are over now.
Anyway, starting degree pretty soon. In February or was it March. Sometime then for sure. I can't wait to get back into the whole studying thing which sounds crazy to some or most students but eh, not for me.
That's it for now. Till I write again.

So my last entry was in April, now it's June already. Man, does time fly by fast. Anyway, I would like to warn any living thing reading this that this will be an extremely long post about anything and everything that's been going on with me. And a crap load of pictures.
So let's start with the month May. Major thing that happened in May was that I no longer lived at home. I started living on campus then and will continue to live here till the 25th of June. Then I'll be flying off to Turkmenistan and live there till January next year. Anyway, my room's pretty spiffy. The rent for a student room in the hotel is RM60 for a day so I guess it's pretty cheap since well, it's a hotel. I have people changing my towels, supplying toilet papers and yada yada so it's worth it. And not to mention the electricity/water is for free and my air-condition is on 24/7. That and I can afford to wake up 10 minutes before class, and still not be late. It's a pretty good deal.
May was also the month of assignments. I swear to whatever higher being there is, I've never felt so mentally exhausted. Not even when I was studying my butt off for SPM. No wonder people said that the rate of failing Foundation is high. Sometimes it's just so hard to cope but I have to. I don't have any other choice now do I? It's a good thing the quality of not giving up halfway through and fight till the end even if it kills you is embedded in me by my dad. Thanks dad, love you. Speaking of my dad, another reason why I refuse to lament over my situation too much is my parents. Can't stand the thought of disappointing them. Because of them, no matter what I say, I do the exact opposite. Examples being "Can't be arsed to study for the Mandarin quiz/exam." - revised the notes like no other or "Screw Business's mid-term." - does the same as mentioned above. Sigh.
The last two week was absolute horrible. Not kidding when I say that I get less than 2 hours sleep everyday during those two weeks. Sometimes I don't sleep at all. The assignments were due one after the other and sometimes I lose the ability to process. And once again, my parents would come to mind and I find myself forcing my brain to work again. Now, I'm down to the last three assignments. Four presentations for Business on Monday and Thursday, One report for BCR and a short film for BAVP. The first two can be done easily but the last one, the short film. Boy am I stressing out over than. I'm writing the script and I'm not done yet. I have a few more scenes to go. That's still okay. The filming is the hard part. Sigh. Put editing into the equation. "Disasterrific," as Rikku from FFXII would say. (Holy, totally just did a harvard referencing over there). Uh sorry, digressing here.
Well, that's it for now. I gotta go. Here are "some" pictures.

Hello blog, did you think I've forgotten your existence? Well, I wouldn't blame you if you did. I have been COMPLETELY and UTTERLY swamped with college work. Crazy and chaotic can't even begin to cover everything that is my college work. The lecturers just love dumping everything on us at the last minute. If it's video work, I don't mind it much cause that can easily be done in 2 days tops. Shoot and edit. That's it.
However, (A frickin fat however I'd like to emphasize) most of the assignments needs a looooooooooottttt of research. I gotta do surveys, interviews, experiments and the works. God! Only he knows how frustrating it is to be in this position. I know I'm not supposed to whine but I need to vent it out on something or somewhere.
Whatever.
Moving onto more happy events, I just bought a DSLR a few days ago. It's a Canon 600D and it was for RM2630 (RM2700+ with the protective lens). And I absolutely love it! I specifically chose this model because it has the flippable screen so it'll make taking videos easier since the whole reason why I bought a DSLR was for school purposes (a student majoring in broadcasting - film area soon here) although camwhoring with such a camera is a plus. Camwhore pictures had never looked so fabulous before.
Here are a couple of shots my friends and I took. Click on it to biggerize it. (Yes, that is a legit word in my friend's dictionary ;P)
Yes, I know I have chunky fingers and horrible nails but this picture is too cool not to be posted haha
Furlicles, one of le queen of camwhoring in Asia
Spicy fried spaghetti at Backofen's. Should totally tried the place out. Go to Taylor's Lakeside. So far, that's the only branch I know of cause duh, that's where I study
Random shot of my light. Tried applying the rule of third. Did I fail? I think so hahaha
Fifi trying to imitate those girls who likes to take pictures of themselves from the angle in any social network. Did she nail it?
And then there's me, trying to do the same but I just ended up looking constipated *shrugs*
A good picture of me and a funky one for furlicles XD
Do you know what this means, having a DSLR in my possession? It means I'll be active in blogging again cause I haz the mean to take pretty pictures of the things I see, eat, buy and so on. So stay tuned!

In a week or so, I will be on my way to fulfilling my longtime dream. I would be auditioning for this competition known as Mentor. It's the 6th season of this show now so it's a huge deal with plenty of followers. And when it's a huge deal, well, the amount of talented people that are going to audition for that chance to make their dreams come true will be huge too.
To say I'm scared and nervous would be the understatement of the year. No words can describe how I feel.
This is really important to me.
Like any dream, mine started when I was really young, at the tender age of one. Whether I realized it or not at that time, it doesn't matter because I could literally sing before I could speak properly. Sure the lyrics coming out of my mouth weren't quite words but I got the rhythm and tune down to a T.
As I grew up, so did my dream. It grew bigger and bigger until I could see it playing out in front of me like a film. My dream is so precious to me that just the thought of it makes my heart ache because I wouldn't know what to do if it were to be shattered into millions of pieces. And I'm scared that I wouldn't be strong enough to pick up all the pieces and glue them back together.
The one thing you should know about me as a person is that I lack confidence. And the thing is, confidence is key when it comes to performing. I could fake it, oh how I can fake it good, but it won't feel good. It won't feel right. Doubt can still creep in and once you lose it, even just for a split second, it's over.
People might think singing is just opening your mouth, playing around with your voice, projecting it and yada yada. It's not. When you sing, you're bearing your heart and soul out to the world in the form of a song. The words you sing, they are the words you can't say.
Do you know how scary that is?
...
Okay. I should stop. I'm not making much sense. Whew. Feels good though, letting all that out.
(PS: The song I'll be singing is Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol. Goes with the title :D)

Are you a fan of The Vampire Diaries? If you are then give yourself a pat in the back for tuning in every Thursday there and Friday here for a new episode. *pats self at the back*
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SERIES.
I'm so glad I was so bored out of my mind a few months back that I was desperate enough to ask my lovely sister to give me some of her series shiz. I REGRET NOTHING.
I'll be honest though, Season 1 was a bit boring but I got through cause there were some pretty amazing episodes. Season 2 on the other hand was what got me hooked and reeled into the world that was Vampire Diaries. And now it's season 3 already which brings me to the reason why I'm talking about VD.
Episode 11.
O.M.G.
One word : KLAROLINE.
MY SHIPPY HEART COULD NOT HANDLE THE SURGE OF HAPPINESS AND GLEE AND JUST PLAIN EUPHORIA. IT FELT BETTER THAN EXPERIENCING AN ORGASM (not that I would know *sigh*).
Oh after spending months of shipping something that seemed next to impossible, I literally cried when it happened.What made it even better was what was being relayed from Klaus to Caroline. The bloody big bad 1000 years old hybrid was giving back Caroline her will to live. He promised her beauty, art, music and all that.
HE EFFING PROMISED HER THE WORLD.
THE WORLD.
And the diamond bracelet.
*dies and enters Klaroline heaven*
Ahem *clears throat*
I do have my suspicion though. Klaus, as mentioned above, IS a big bad 1000 years old hybrid. He's probably killed more humans than humans have with chicken (and that's saying something). He's definitely got something up his sexy British sleeves. He could be using her as a bargaining chip or he just wants to mess around with Tyler but regardless of his true agenda behind the whole 'saving Caroline and giving her a diamond bracelet to make Tyler's gift look like trash', there was something genuine about his speech to Caroline.
And that just makes me wanna *holds up fist to the sky with tears running down my eyes*
So damn beautiful. I just can't D;

So much for doing a comparison post on the last day of 2011. I've been so busy lately with packing my stuff up, moving to another room and all. Not to mention I still have stuff to shop for and living life without my parents living with me anymore to worry about.
I'm still packing my life away in boxes and plastic storage boxes. Hopefully I'll be done by tomorrow. So for now, toodles and goodnight.

...and a new me? Probably. *shrugs*
I'm feeling a little reluctant in letting 2011 go. This year's been so good to me and I just don't want it to end. 2012 might be a total different story for me (kind of already is since my parents will be moving bazillions miles to Turkmenistan) but alas, what's a girl like me to do but learn how to adapt to the new situation that life throws at me.
Anyway, I thought of doing comparison type of thing between the present me and the old me so I dug up my folders and found a few blog worthy pictures haha. BUT I won't be doing it tonight. I'll do it on the last day of 2011 :)
So for now, goodnight.
